NEED TIPS BEFORE I INSTALL KONI SHOCKS + KING Springs*

[zapantalambda]

G'day mates. Im on desperate mode right now.
You see, i'm goin to install my KONI Shocks + KING springs combo tomorrow to my Civic 92 EG. prob is i need tips or suggestions before i fit it on.
let me just mention that i am not a height-change fanatic.
i just want it to be comfortable and my car is jampacked most of the time.
Any Tips/Notes/Suggestions ?

Set the Koni on half turn from softest initially and adjust after a week or so if needed

Make sure the height circlips are locked in properly

If theyre new you should have install guide to follow

@EKVTIR-T - Thank Yous Buddy.

If reusing the shock dust cover you will need to grind out the inner hole alittle to accommodate for the larger koni piston shaft








If you are stuck or lazy and in Sydney , I can install quickly and cheaply ;0)

so far got no issues about it except for the rubbing sound i hear everytime i do sudden full-lock turns at the roundabout.
i reckon the mudguard is touching / rubbing the shocks IMO, well im not sure. i still need to go back to ISON and let the guys
adjust the thing. not really a big deal though.

i was there when the guys fitted the thing mate but i didn't see the guys grinding anything. :/
is that something i need to worry about? so far there's no issue though other than the rubbing sound i hear everytime i do full-lock turns at the roundabout.
do you have any idea what causes it mate?

Install looks fine to me
The noise you hear at full lock is the inner guard rubbing at full lock. You have 16s or 17s yeah ? This will happen will you lower the car. You can remove the inner splash guard and this will often fix the noise issue.

i had 16s on mine mate. thats a bit wierd coz i told the guys that i just want the standard height. no height drops at all coz my car is full of family most of the time.
so i shouldnt be expecting those rubbbings.

Honda brakes are more than enough even on the tracks, so why would he get a brembos. If u can afford them, (or dreaming about a set of brembos), doesnt mean every 1 can.
